just feeling so sad

[cowsaysmoo]

I know it's not the end of the world, I just need to vent.
My dc (2yo) is ill since Thursday. Nothing serious just a cold with a high fever.

We were supposed to be out for a party with my DH and have babysitter but my DC was so poorly all day that we decided that I'd stay home (it's my mil significant bday party, so it couldn't be other way round).

For the last hour my DC is full of beans, running around, jumping and demanding to be chased around and I can't help but feel so down that I couldn't go out. We don't have many opportunities to go out, especially to dress up and go to a nice, adult only event. I wanted to go out with my DH so badly. Now I'm just sobbing whilst giving my DC bath and feeling so guilty at the same time as he knows I'm sad and keeps trying hard to make me feel better.
Worst timing.

Thank you for reading x

It's still quite early. Is it too late to get the babysitter to come for a couple of hours so you could go? That's assume the party is local to you.

Good news your little one has perked up though.

Yeah, too late.
